Time-Limited Hunt

Yan Junxun squatted down, making sure that this little robot was the one in Huo Qingjun's room.

The air in the duct was very humid, and the shirt that hadn't been dried was sticking to the skin, which made Yan Junxun feel uncomfortable.The sound of rain that disappeared in his head sounded again, just a little, as if the rain was falling far away.

Who put the little robot here, waiting for them to find out?

Shi Shanyan took the little robot's hat and stood up again.He approached the iron wall of the pipe, wiped it with his hand, and saw the graffiti on it clearly.

Graffiti on the walls showed several exaggerated figures stretched into bows, and beards painted on women's faces.

Shi Shanyan thought of the graffiti on the walls he saw when he got off the refuge. At that time, they were just irregular lines, but now they have become familiar things.

Standing behind Shi Shanyan, Yan Junxun still remembered the beard on the graffiti woman's face: "This is the graffiti in Liu Xincheng's corridor."

There was no one in the empty pipe, and both Shi Shanyan and Yan Junxun could confirm that there was no one here.But graffiti seemed to be a kind of mockery, and laughter seemed to echo in Yan Junxun's ears.The feeling of being watched struck again, making his hair stand on end.

Yan Junxun's originally clear thoughts were disrupted, he took a step back and looked at the graffiti suspiciously.Is it Park Lin?Or a scalpel?Who is doing this kind of thing?The system had been turned off, and Hephaestus couldn't even monitor him through the chip.

I am looking at you.

Someone seemed to say this to him from afar.

"Go forward," Shi Shanyan returned the hat to the little robot, and held Yan Junxun's hand, "Go to the end and have a look."

They have no way out and must move forward.This chaotic world is full of fog, and the discomfort of being watched always appears when they can vaguely see the truth.

The little robot was lying on the ground, its hat wet with dirty water.Yan Junxun stepped over it, its goggle-like eyes were tilted, and the battery was dead.It has persisted until now with the remaining power, it seems to be to talk to them.

The water at the bottom of the pipe increased and gradually reached Yan Junxun's calf.

Shi Shanyan raised his head and looked at the top of the pipe.He could hear the sound of water flowing against the iron wall: "A pipe is leaking."

Yan Junxun also raised his head and asked, "Do you know the time?"

"According to our speed," said Shi Shanyan, "it should be around 23 o'clock now."

"I haven't heard the vibration of the light track passing by for a long time," Yan Junxun didn't hear it at the scalpel's house. He continued, "Now there is only one hour left before the recovery time," Yan Junxun mentioned " When recovering", there will be a slight pain in the head, as if an ant is biting. "If Hephaestus has not woken up, Ares in the light track area should have noticed the abnormality."

The system is very punctual, and they check points more accurately than humans.If Hephaestus did not reply to Ares within the allotted time, it must have taken some kind of action.Yan Junxun understands Ares just as he understands Fu Chenghui.

The knocking sound inside the pipe became louder as they approached, and Yan Junxun began to wonder, was that really the sound he imagined?It's a bit different than the chip jammed sound, it's more realistic.

"What do you want to do most when you leave the glass?" Shi Shanyan held Yan Junxun's hand tightly.

His question came too suddenly, like an interruption for no reason.

Yan Junxun felt his hand hurt from being held. He thought for a while and replied, "Looking at the stars. What about you? What do you want to do most after leaving the Black Panther?"

"Make love," Shi Shanyan clasped fingers with Yan Junxun while speaking, "satisfies my vulgar desire."

"This is not the truth," Yan Junxun looked at the hands of the two people, "You are free."

"Surveillance is everywhere, Jun Xun," Shi Shanyan saw the iron door concealed in the darkness, "I told you similar things before, right?"

"You said 'we are all under surveillance'," Yan Junxun felt uneasy, "you were reminding me at that time."

"Can a person maintain normal physiological needs during minute-to-second monitoring?" Shi Shanyan repeated his past questions, and then answered by himself, "I can."

He seems to be proving something.

"A lot of our words seem to be repeated," Yan Junxun thought of the first meeting, "such as 'Hello'. Have you seen me before?"

Shi Shanyan did not answer this question.After he discovered the little robot, he felt a little weird, as if he was thinking about some problems.The end of the pipe was just ahead, and the iron door was not locked.Shi Shanyan tried to push it, and it opened.

Run out of the glass, Yan Junxun!

These words suddenly interrupted the knocking sound, like a wake-up call, which made Yan Junxun dizzy.He held on to the door, and when he looked up, he was caught by a dim light.

"Raise your hand." The scalpel was pointing at Shi Shanyan with a gun.

Pu Lin held the small flashlight and pointed it at Shi Shanyan.The power of the flashlight was low, and it flickered once.

"What are you doing?" Yan Junxun frowned.

"Looking for an undercover agent," the scalpel raised the muzzle of the gun, and some ash fell from the cigarette in his mouth, "Damn it, you even fooled me, you are not 01AE86 at all!"

Shi Shanyan looked indifferent: "Put down the gun."

"Brother Xun," Park Lin said with a pale face, "01AE86 does not exist in this world!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The knocking sound in Yan Junxun's head became faster, and the rhythm was like a timer.

Timer again!Since the clown appeared, the timer continued to appear.

"I said there is no 01AE86 in this world!" Park Lin's flashlight flashed again, his voice trembling, and he raised his communicator, "The last message received by the shelter receiver, '7-001 Shishan Yan, confirmed dead in 2162'. Brother Xun, he is a fake!"

Park Lin was about to lose control in the continuous information onslaught.

"Everything was false from the beginning... Shi Shanyan died a long time ago! He was an undercover agent sent by Fu Chenghui, and he came here to gain your trust just to—"

Before Pu Lin finished speaking, the flashlight ran out of power.The moment the space fell into darkness, the scalpel fired.Yan Junxun was pulled down by Shi Shanyan, and the bullet hit the door frame suddenly, causing a loud noise in the pipe.

The timer quickly reset to zero, and there was a warning sound in Yan Junxun's head. The 8th is here, and recycling time begins now!

"Number 01AE86..."

In the memory, Jiang Lian is standing on the side of the road and introducing his new partner to Yan Junxun. The sunset behind him makes the picture show an old and dilapidated feeling.The shattered picture split Jiang Lian, and he became countless him, and his voice was also separated.

"Danger index specific S class."

"Did you ever hear of him when you were in Special Forces?"

"... Treat yourself as a gift."

There was gunfire ahead, and there was gunfire behind.

Yan Junxun hugged his head, the "beep" of the timer, Jiang Lian's introduction, and the gunshots all surrounded him, making his veins twitch from the noise.The empty shelter left him nowhere to hide, the chip stung his nerves, and he almost couldn't tell the truth from the false again amidst the noise!

"This is the setting of the world," the clown wiped his face exactly the same as Yan Junxun's, and he whispered into Yan Junxun's ear, "No one can escape from the cosmic bottle."

【If memory can be modified...】

[Answer me, Yan Junxun. 】
